No, I'm a native.  Born and raised in nyc.  I'm a fan, not a nut.  I'd
rather see them lose a good series than win a dull one.  That was
a historical comeback and Boston deserves all the credit in the world.
A house that the bambino's wife lived in somewhere in MA was
demolished this year.  Maybe that was it.  Stay tuned.
